"We had the absolute pleasure of working with Leigh for our wedding and could not be happier with the experience. What stood out most was her connection with the various vendors and her experience with pulling everything together seamlessly. She took the time to understand our vision and had so many creative ideas on décor and layout to further personalize our event.
Leigh’s calm demeanor, excellent organizational skills, vendor relationships and innate creativity helped to make our wedding day memorable. Leigh is truly amazing and I would highly recommend her to coordinate and plan a wedding event!"
"We interviewed a few different wedding coordinators when planning our wedding, and after we spoke to Leigh, my now husband and I immediately agreed she was the perfect fit for us.
She had amazing advice and was ready to help with ANY questions or concerns we had. Very personable and she made planning so seamless and our entire day went on without a hitch (as far as I know, I'm sure if anything went wrong she took care of it without us even knowing!).
I would 1000% recommend her for a wedding planner or any other big event you have going on in your life."
"Leigh is exactly the wedding planner that we needed. Her calming and competent nature made our wedding planning process so enjoyable and quite stress-free.
Leigh is well-connected in the Nashville area, which makes her a true asset to your event planning process. Anything we needed, she was able to locate for us.
She is an excellent listener- hearing our concerns, wishes, and goals with great attention to detail, while making valuable and informed suggestions based on her extensive experience. She is organized and prompt. I can't say enough about Leigh's skills in this area.
She was an absolute joy to work with, and she will ensure that your event is exactly what you envision."
"Hiring Leigh Bawcom was truly the best decision we made while planning my daughter’s wedding!
Early in the process, we felt overwhelmed by the many decisions to be made. Leigh immediately put us at ease helping us prioritize each item to be done. She helped us carry out our vision and provided amazing ideas and suggestions along the way!
Leigh has a gift of bringing calmness to all situations. She is poised and has an easy going demeanor. In addition, she has a strong sense of confidence and capableness. She handled every wedding detail with great care and professionalism!
Leigh is extremely knowledgable about the wedding industry and has a strong network of quality vendors. She helped us locate and communicate with each vendor throughout the planning process, coordinated set up of the venue, and handled vendor and time management on the wedding day from start to finish. Leigh and her team managed all the day’s details, big and small, allowing me to enjoy the day by just being “mom!”
I highly recommend Leigh for any event you are planning. She is incredible!! You will absolutely fall in love with her as we did!"
"Leigh helped us plan our wedding from start to finish and she helped make all my dreams come to life! Leigh is the absolute best and my vision wouldn’t have come to life without her by our side! She did an outstanding job coordinating everything, so I didn’t have as much on my plate during the busy bridal season. She gave extra details on anything I had questions about and helped the decision making process move along smoothly.
Would absolutely recommend her to anyone planning for their big day!"
"Leigh is a gracious Southern lady who uses a combination of competence and consideration to get things done. Always diplomatic, Leigh is wonderful at coming up with innovative solutions to challenging situations that work for everyone.
Leigh possesses a strong work ethic, a high degree of personal integrity, and a genuine desire to give you the event of your dreams; and she delivers!
I could not have done my daughter's wedding without her. In the months leading up to the wedding, she served as my right hand. On the day of the wedding she was my right hand, my left hand and my saving grace!
I thought that I could only afford a day-of-wedding coordinator, but a few months before the wedding, I felt that my daughter and I would both benefit from hiring Leigh. She instantly became a part of our team and provided so much help and encouragement. She excelled at organization, vendor relationships, logistics, day-of-wedding coordination and comprehensive timelines. In addition, she was excellent at providing reassurance to the Bride and the Mother of the Bride! Of the many wedding-related expenses, the best money that I spent was on hiring Leigh!"
"Leigh Bawcom is a fantastic wedding planner! I had the unique opportunity to work with Leigh both as her day-of wedding assistant for several years and as one of her brides this winter. From the first appointment to the wedding day, Leigh uses her extensive knowledge of the wedding industry to make all of her brides’ dreams come true. Her professional, attentive manner immediately makes her brides, grooms, and their parents feel comfortable and alleviates any or all concerns they might have. Leigh is always punctual to meetings, flexible, and organized, and she thoughtfully recommends vendors who stay within the brides’ budgets. After working with her, I knew that I would hire her as my wedding planner! Thanks to her, I used the best vendors that I have ever worked with! I was particularly impressed with her ability to run my wedding rehearsal and coordinate the wedding day. She ran an efficient rehearsal, kept the attention of the wedding party, and ensured that Luke and I would not be nervous for the ceremony! On the day of the wedding, she arrived early, coordinated with all the vendors, decorated, and checked in with me to make sure that I had everything I needed. The entire day ran smoothly! Leigh was such an integral part of our wedding, and Luke and I are thankful for everything she did to make our day so wonderful!"
"Wow, it is hard to believe it is now over two months since our wedding. As I look back at this magical day I know I could not have pulled this long-distance wedding off without Leigh. We couldn't have done it without her suggestions, sage advice, experience, and time-line. However, it was not just her organizational input that was important. I actually loved the wedding day itself because I did not have to think about the minute details of our reception - Leigh and Rebecca took care of these. Because of that I can echo my husband's words the morning after our wedding: "that party was the best night of my life". So, thank you to Leigh for all she did: calming me down over many phone calls from Los Angeles leading up to our big day, seeing to the caterers, band, pictures at Carnton, seating, bartenders, lighting, and clean-up. My dad especially enjoyed her handling of the police when they showed up late in the evening (which I didn't even know about until a few weeks later).
This wedding was everything I could have ever imagined."
"From the very start of the planning process, Leigh put me at ease. Her knowledge and experience of the industry helped us make informed decisions to craft the perfect day. Leigh sincerely wants her couples to be happy with their wedding - she listens to what you want and puts her whole heart into making those dreams become a reality. She supported our less-than-traditional ideas with enthusiasm and met them with great suggestions. Leigh is focused and calm, and her confidence allowed me to enjoy every moment of our wedding.
Even when our officiant was stuck in traffic before the ceremony, Leigh came up with plan B to make sure our wedding would still be perfect - she is quick to fix any crisis that comes her way. Fortunately, our officiant did make it on time, and my husband and I never even knew there was a crisis to begin with!"
"Leigh was wonderful to work with!! She took the time to get to know us and the vision we had for our wedding day. Leigh was able to put our big-picture idea into action and it exceeded all hopes and expectation! By making great vendor recommendations, Leigh connected us to quality options and mitigated the decision making process. As we worked through details, Leigh had an eye for options that would come together perfectly for our hybrid look. With both our families out of town, Leigh was really flexible to accommodate travel schedules throughout the planning process. Her event planning expertise ensured there were no hiccups leading up to the wedding and the day-of went seamlessly. We're thrilled to have had Leigh as part of our celebration! She kept the process organized, fun, and low-stress."
"How wonderful to be able to truly 'enjoy' your daughter's wedding!!! From engagement to wedding day, Leigh took care of every detail. Her organizational skills and lists of fabulous vendors made the entire planning process easy and realistically affordable. She was always available to answer any questions that we had. We just had to show up (according to Leigh's down-to-the minute schedule) on the big day without a worry about any of the details. We had a wonderful experience and a perfect wedding! Thank you, Leigh!"
"Fathers of the bride who don't think a wedding planner is a necessity and mothers of the bride who want to enjoy the whole process, listen carefully. Leigh Bawcom brings experience, diplomacy, and knowledge to the table. Every vendor we interviewed including the venue coordinator and the band knew and had worked with Leigh. She lived up to her reputation as efficient and always available to answer questions during the planning process and all over every detail on our wedding day . That all translates to the best experience possible while you relax and enjoy what matters most. Hire someone else at your own risk!"
